Jeanne Champion (1931 - )

Writer and painter, Jeanne Champion was born on June 25, 1931 in the Jura where it passed her childhood. Exit of a rural medium, it joined his/her parents in Paris where it exerted various trades before venturing in painting in 1956, then in the writing in 1961. It has just published at Plon the T1 of its Scraps of memory. It will expose to space Châtelet Victoria, in Paris, an about sixty its works. If one knows his literary production better, one knows less his pictorial work which it held a long time secret. Constantly dissatisfied, it destroyed the majority of its tables. Those which were not it were worked over again with the forty last year old wire. Also should not one be astonished by the variation of the dates which appear in the bottom of its works. There remain to him today approximately 200 fabrics gone back to 1960 to 2001, a hundred gouaches, drawings which it does not want to show for the moment, four tapestries. Abstracted by taste and interior need, the artist approached the figuration during ten years, very precisely between 1970 and 1980. In the book that we publish, Yann Queffélec presents to us the figurative part of works of Jeanne Champion is the dry pastels with the contents iconoclaste of its "Imaginary Museum" and the large allegorical portraits with the lead pencil, its "Portraits of notoriety". Realized between 1970 and 1980, these works were never presented at the public, they are new.
